Summary
"You've lived a life you just don't see it yet..."
An invitation to a party in LA forces you to revisit a chapter of your life that you thought you'd left behind. You struggle to reconcile who you used to be with who you have become - and are they truly separate entities?
A story of what it is to be young and in love, followed by what it is to be a little older, a little wiser, and maybe, hypothetically, still a little in love.

Summary
In a program similar to Weapon X, wherein people taken by human traffickers are sold down the line to a group of corrupt scientists wishing to generate their own superheroes, you and a group of twenty-two others suffer impossible torture in the name of someone else's greed.
When you are rescued by The Avengers, somehow you are the only one whose mind has not been utterly broken. If the Doctor and his Nurse are ever going to pay for their crimes, The Avengers will need your help to find them.

Summary
Your thoughts are stuck in a repeating playlist of questions, each one without an answer.
Who is tinfoilhat?
Why would they trust you, of all people?
It all begins to feel very noir, the longer you think about it. Words like "espionage" and "scapegoat" spring to mind. Visions of high-powered lawyers and faceless CEOs backed by unfathomable amounts of dollar signs. Which is to say... you're beginning to wonder..."Am I in danger?"
___
Going with the flow is all well and good, but... ever think the homeowner should have a few more questions about their super special furniture fuck glasses?

Summary
Bakugou (25) is a single dad of four year old Hatsuki. Full-time Hero, full-time dad, full-time exhausted and lonely, but he’d never admit that aloud to anyone.
You and Kirishima have been dating for a while and often babysit Hatsuki as Bakugou relies on everyone in his friend pool to help in a situation he never expected to find himself in, but wouldn’t change for the world.
He craves companionship and familial stability for his daughter and assumes no one would be good enough, not for either of them.
But maybe he’s been looking in all the wrong places. Bakugou x Reader x Kirishima Poly AU

Summary
“Hey there, Sanji!” Luffy shouts, bounding over to him. “You need to check out Usopp’s invention!”
It all happens so fast.
His eyes are on the drinks for a second, careful not to spill them, when Luffy is suddenly in his personal space, pushing something down on Sanji’s head, and it’s heavy, and it’s metal, and Sanji screams.
----Or: A thoughtless gesture turns into Sanji having a breakdown and accidentally destroying Usopp's property. It's up to the crew to piece their cook back together.

Summary
Three years ago you were normal, the only demons you had to fight were your own, and you the most you knew of Vought and the Boys was what you saw on TV. But then you met Homelander at a stupid party, and woke up the next morning in a cell.
After almost two and a half years of you being Homelander's little project, Soldier Boy was woken up only go rouge and be put back under. Somewhere in there, you escaped. And before Queen Maeve went underground, she told William Butcher about the Anomaly, a powerful supe who recently escaped Vought captivity and may have an agenda against Homelander.
One month later, the Boys found you.
You spend the next five months helping them best you can, though your control over your powers is weak and your fear of Homelander makes you useless in combat. But you get an idea. A stupid, dangerous idea that turns you into Soldier Boy's keeper, giving him a second chance to take down Homelander, you hanging over his shoulder as a threat should he want to go nuclear again. It's exhausting and frustrating, and you might kill him and yourself as soon as this is over, but you said whatever it takes.
And this is what it takes.
